Panasonic 55" Full HD Open Port Platform MSRP Price : $2,679.00 Price : $2,357.52 Company: Panasonic ConsumerDisplaysMPN: TH-55AF1U SKU: PAC-TH-55AF1U Product tabsDescriptionPanasonic TH-55AF1U 55" Class Full HD Professional Signage Display with Android-Based OpenPort Platform (Black) The black TH-55AF1U 55"-Class Full HD Professional Signage Display from Panasonic provides a brightness output of 500cd/m2 and supports native resolution of up to 1920 x 1080. The featured 1300:1 static contrast ratio showcases this monitors ability to handle light and dark on-screen images. The panel's 8 ms response time shows its ability to combat image blur and distortion on moving images.The display features an Android-based OpenPort Platform powered by a high-performance SoC (System on a Chip) featuring a 1 GHz quad-core CPU, 1GB of memory, and 8GB internal storage (including OS). It is fully certified by Google to assure stable, secure, and reliable operation. Thanks to the built-in media player function, external devices such as set-top boxes, PCs, and associated cabling are not required for digital signage applications. Furthermore, the display supports USB drives and microSD cards that can be used to expand the 8GB internal memory storage capacity.The AF1 Series display is equipped with HDMI, DVI-D, and USB terminals. If the main video and audio signals are interrupted, the system immediately switches to alternative signals. If primary input signals are restored, the original image is displayed automatically. These safeguards are invaluable when the displays are used in control rooms and surveillance centers. The multi monitoring & control software offers monitoring and control of up to 2,048 devices over a LAN network from a single PC. For monitoring, the status of each device can be listed in groups. It gives detailed information on individual displays which can be shown separately. The control functions include power On/Off, input switching, scheduling, and command inputs.IPS Display The display features an edge-LED IPS panel with 500 cd/m² of brightness. This efficient technology assures uncommonly good off-axis visibility that preserves color accuracy even in bright ambient light. Further, the displays feature a slim 0.25" (6.3mm) bezel that boosts perceived image size. Fanless Design The robust fanless design prevents problems caused by the intake of dusty air. The display can be safely installed and operated in high-traffic environments. Adaptable OpenPort Platform for Custom Applications The display has an Android-based OpenPort Platform powered by a high-performance SoC (System on a Chip) featuring a 1 GHz quad-core CPU, 1GB of memory, and 8 GB internal storage. It is fully certified by Google to assure stable, secure, and reliable operation. Applications running on OpenPort Platform are thoroughly checked by alliance partners and Panasonic for stable and secure operation.
